Across the combined capital cities, dwelling values have increased by 6.4% over the 12 months to March 2016 which is their slowest annual rate of growth in 31 months.

Rental rates on the other hand, have fallen by -0.2% across the combined capital cities over the past year and this is the first time on record (records run from 1996) that rental rates have fallen on an annual basis.

The common theme across the individual capital cities is that home values and rental rates are in most instances more expensive closer to the city and more affordable as you move further away from the city centre.

All data included in the following graph is displayed at a suburb level and where there is no colouring on the maps it indicates there were not enough sale or rental observations to calculate statistically reliable figures.

Also note that all of the underlying data is available for purchase.
